The Heart of Christmas

“I fear we are going to have a very •poor Christinas nt our house." said Jane to Florence ns they were walkins home from school. “You know father’s been out of work on account of the strike, and mother's lons Illness will make It niiXt to Impossible to buy gifts for the children. And we may not even have a Christmas tree!" Ami nt the thought of a •Christinas .without a tree, ter voice which had been tremulous, broke into a half stifled sob. Florence looked very thoughtful, then said In comforting tones. “But your father’s at work again Isn’t he?” “Yes.” “Aud your mother’s health Is much better.” “Yes, we expect her downstairs for Christmas day.” “Welli then I think, Jane, that yop should have great cause for rejoicing at your house —Christmas tree, or no Christmas tree.” “I had not thought of that Florence, but you are right.” ’“Sometimes, I think we lose the real spirit of Christmas,” continued Jane, “by thinking that Christmas comes from what we get or give instead of realizing that it is right la our hearts.” By this time the friends hud come to the parting of the way, and with a

- The Tree of Love i Am The Tree Of Love I am the light That Christmas-tide Brings. I am ever green My limbs are yearning to Bear the burden of gifts of Noel. I live in the high, open Spaces where God smiles brightest on tlie world, where his light Keeps the memory of Christ’s birth Refreshed. Years ago men fought and Knew no time to think of the Gentle One who spoke of Love. And then one Night a star beamed in the east and filled Me with a sweet grace. My soul quivered, And I was born again. And now I come With the Christmas time to remind you of Love—Love, that fades, but lives again. lam But a dream unless you know me. I wish To ache under the burden of love gifts. Yes, I am ever green; I live forever,.but You do not know me always. I' ask You to remember the little ones Whom Love has passed; when some Forget me. I pray the light that Never dies shall flame out again In your heart. For this I live. For this I ask. I wish — To live and serve. I am Love Hope Life I am the Tres of Love. ;i*

OPPOSED TO CHRISTMAS PIE

The Puritans were not alone In their opposition to mince or Christmas pie. The Quakers also fought against It. and at length even many good people of the Church of England began to think that clergymen should abstain from it, against which prejudice Blckerstaffe thus remonstrates: “The Christmus pie is. In Its own nature, a kind of consecrated cake or badge Of distinction, and yet it is often forbidden tin* druid of the family. Strange that a sirloin of beef, whether boiled or roasted, when entire is exposed to the utmost depredations and Invasions, but if minced into smhll pieces and tossed up with plums und sugar It changes the property, and forsooth Is meat for Ills master."
